We used Virtual PC with a Windows operating system loaded on it to use our Access database. It worked great, although a tad slower than a real PC.

There are a bunch of different settings on the image trace so maybe the auto settings just aren't working for your image. Try playing around with the custom settings to see if you can get what you need. After you trace something I believe you still have to expand it to get all the paths to...

So after reading this thread I did some thinking and brainstorming with my IT guy. We decided to skip the software and dedicate a partition on our ftp site. Our new procedure will be to include a direct link to a proof placed on our ftp site so it will show up in a customer's browser when...
